Hihi, as soon as Mother releases something new, I also instantly have to buy it, as it was with those 2 palettes, but now my cousin knows why I'm so obsessed with Pat McGrath's shadows, bc I gifted her my "old" quad, it was her very first PML shadows and now she is in our fam and has about 7+ palettes, quads etc too, one time Pat McGrath, always Pat McGrath🤪🤌😘
So good to see you again and well recovered💓. Great news about the publication, congratulationsI love the new lipstick, i may try to get it if it ever goes on sale😊 i agree the Lunar quad is gorgeous but i am still on the fence about it. Thank you for another wonderful, fun and informative review.😘💓
@@mariam.a. i didn’t get the OG at the time as it was not all special shades like her other quads which i all have. I have been hoping however it would ‘come back soon’…am still trying to get Blood Rush lippy but it’s also out of stock…always late to the party 😁
Congratulations on the publication 🎉🎉🎉🎉I hate having work hanging over my head, well done, great relief. Now to the next publication. Love this video xxx
So happy for you and congratulations on your article being published. Thank you for this video - very very helpful. Rouge 8 is so very flattering on your complexion.
Thank you!! I can’t figure out what it is about both this and Fever Dream that works so well. One of my colleagues also has Fever Dream and she is a different skin tone and that lipstick does wonders for her too.
I had to come back and tell you that I bought Rouge 8 and the lunar new year version of this palette and I agree with you that the products are fantastic.
Oh my you sold me the lipstick 💄 beautiful. It looks stunning on you and wearable. Yes it brightens your complexion, we have a similar complexion so I think I need this (if I can get my hands on it). You are funny about the quad haha. I nearly fell down that slippery slope to purchase Divine rose 2 in the rose pink packaging after I already had it in black…luckily I didn’t xxxxxxx
Haha I think a couple of people were sold on it. I hope I didn’t lead you all on! 😅 Thank goodness I have DR II in the rose gold packaging so that kind of satisfied my need for a pink palette. I totally get the struggle!
Congrats on the paper and especially quick reviews response ♥ All the magic comes from color theory ☺ if you cover the packaging with a sheet of paper with a whole and look at the pans, they'll be the same (apart from the metallic one). That's the same mechanism as peachy eyeshadows making blue eyes pop more by contrast or skin looking better when you wear harmonising colours of similar undertone. My guess would be that only metallic is different
First congratulations on your paper! I ordered the lunar quad thinking I did not have it…and guess what…I had it. Now you made me feel much better. I had not compared because upon watching your video had to do a massive search! Thank you for the comparison! I am going to get the lipstick…I love red lipsticks and this looks gorgeous. They have it Sephora so I think I will order from there and get points. Yet another Mariam made me buy it. ❤❤❤
@@mariam.a. I know! Somehow when I unpacked it did not put in the place with all the others so when I looked I thought I did not have it. But I decided that I need to look everywhere and found it. Your comparison made me feel better about it. They are not the same.
So interesting to see the comparisons. I’m a bit gutted about the differences as I think the old quad has the shade I would prefer. Ah well. Still looks beautiful.
Well done and congratulations on the publication of your paper. What a great way to begin the year :) Lippy does look great on you, and it is so interesting deep diving into the nuances of various red lipsticks. I have the original quad so didn’t buy this new one but it’s been interesting to see the two compared. I enjoyed this video a lot, thanks Mariam.
Thank you!! It was great news to receive amid all the sickness this past month. Has anyone else compared them?? I haven’t actually looked. Curious what other’s thought…
Actually your video made me purchase the new version. I had the old one but I didnt like that cool toned shade in there so in the end I sold the quad. The new version, with warmer, bronzey shade is what I was missing in this quad. Thank you for the comparison
Congratulations on the publication of your paper! That’s fantastic! I got the red lipstick, too, and I love it. I guess I have a type because I ADORE Fever Dream. Im glad I have both, but you’re right. Most people wouldn’t need both. I’m always so surprised with how well the MatteTrance lipsticks last. It’s funny because I wear them all the time. They are, by far, my most worn shades. They are just so light and non drying, I’m always pleasantly surprised when I look in the mirror that they are still there. After looking at all of your swatches, I now want Velvet Dragon more than ever! I know those orange reds tend to make teeth look yellow, but they look good with my undertones! The bronze in the new quad definitely goes better in that quad. I do love the other bronze in the original quad. I wear it with browns like you said-probably because I frequently recreate looks and Pat pairings of yours! 😂 I’m so glad you pointed out that, although the new quad pans look smaller, they actually have more product. I’d never completely ever pan either, but it makes me feel better that the company isn’t in trouble and trying to cut costs at every turn. Pat McGrath Labs going under or changing hands is my nightmare.
Dragon is guaranteed one if the most unique lipsticks you will ever own. I hated liquid lipsticks with a passion so I am glad Lisa and Pat gave us actual comfortable matte formulas. If Pat goes under I will be inconsolable and will never enjoy makeup again. She can never go out if business…even the thought makes me shiver. I already look forward to this year’s mothership 🥰.
I love your thoroughness always! Especially the remark about the setup of the the quad and if they would have decentered it a bit, it would look better. Brilliant!
@@mariam.a. I get bored/ annoyed by bloggers who do not go into depth about products when reviewing them, or use the same words/ descriptions over and over. You do always bring a fresh take and are eloquent in your wordings
Congratulations on the publication!!! 👏 That lipstick sounded like a Velvet Dragon/Cinnabar type of colour, but it is quite different! I slightly prefer the cooler tone coming from the bronze in the original palette look, but that's very typical of me 😅
Thanks babe!! I am super happy about it. Nah it’s definitely a category of f its own…if anything in the same category as Fever Dream. I think a lot of people would prefer the OG taupe, this one is pretty but less unique. I am happy to have both.
That's awesome, congratulations on being published, that's such a big deal!! I completely agree with you on your observations between the two palettes, I had been trying to find what was wrong, and you nailed it. It's unfortunate that the red around the colours is not that flattering, but oh well. Also I had already assumed that there was less product in the new one, but I was happy to hear I was wrong! Maybe they decided it was better to hit pan later, even though it would have looked better for the pans to be bigger?
Honestly I think the bigger/shallower pans look prettier against the rest of the palette. I don’t get these smaller and uglier pans especially give the amount of product is in fact slightly more.
@@mariam.a. Yes, I fully agree with you. And while I love the red for Chinese New Year, it doesn't show the eyeshadow colours to their best. It's weird, hey?
Oh great news on the paper! Congrats! What a relief you didn’t have to do more experiments. Drop the boulder and 🎤 I’m glad the new palette is slightly different 😂 and agree on the irritating off-balance layout of the pans. The lipstick has that glowing effect that I’m sure will garner you many compliments. Ok on to the next release! What are you thinking about the new Keyaki brushes from Sonia G? I can’t remember if you have the originals. I don’t, so I’m quite tempted.
Thank you! I sent you a link to the paper in case you’re still curious to read it. It’s open access 😉. I do have the very first Keyaki set and I love it. Didn’t pick up the two latest brushes cause I have similar shapes from Sonia already. Seems a bit of overkill so I will pass.
Hi! Congratulations on the publishing of your scientific paper (I guess I’ll have to check out your December video to find out what the paper is about). I love the Vixen quad - I thank you for comparing it with the new version. I also feel that the new version is more cohesive (if I didn’t have a backup of the original, I would buy the new one). The LE lipstick is beautiful on you - that one really tempts me now. Thank you for the great video.
Thank you!! Oh you didn’t miss much. I work in biomedical sciences but beyond that I have not specified what the paper was about. It’s so niche 😅. You are not the first person who tells me they have a backup of Vixen. I didn’t realize that quad was so coveted. The lipstick is totally worth!!!
Thanks for specifying your area of research. My son is studying biomedical engineering - 3rd year. Job prospects here in Canada are not great though. Definitely a niche area. Cheers!
@@jocelynel-fab5214 ohh good luck to him!! No it’s not a very glamorous or well-earning occupation. It’s more of a passion but on the bright side, I always go to work with joy. Accountants probably can’t say the same.
First of all congratulations on your publication and so glad you are feeling much better!!! I have the original Voyeuristic Vixen and I prefer original over this. I wonder why she would change the shade with a new different color? That lipstick is gorgeous! I dnt wear reds and would only buy it for the beautiful packaging and embossing! So I decided to pass. I did purchase the all matte palette in love collection to use a travel companion palette to my mother megaships cuz they are shimmer heavy! Thanks for the comparisons and review! That red lip is gorgeous on you!
I was sure lots of people would prefer the old one for this reason. Not sure why the color is different probably slight batch variation or ingredient that was hard to get? Definitely don’t get it just for the embossing! Yay for getting the new one. Hope you love it!
Congratulations with the publikation 🎉🥳💐 Super awesome after all the time you put into it. About the colour difference, they will look different due to the background, but wow the Twilight Bronze in the new palette sure is very different on the skin and eyes, what a surprise. 😱 Both are pretty though 🥰
Update: I ordered the lipstick from Sephora. It is definitely different than Lisa Eldridge Enchanment. Enchantment is definitely pink based; this has more of an orange base. It is spectacular. Mariam made me buy it 😎
Congratulations on the paper!!!🥳 me before the video: haha not buying anything, I will not be influenced; me after the video: oh no, an unique shade of red :D:D...I am very close to buying it but I already have so many reds.. the struggle..I also like the quad and that red lacquer is to striking but honestly the black style of packaging looks more appealing to me, especially with that raised logo in gold and I can dupe it but you made me think about it very hard lol :D
Thank you! Haha don’t let me influence you!!! Only if you will get a lot of use out of this lipstick. Otherwise it’s a shame. I totally agree…in terms of luxury attention to detail the old packaging is far superior.
I'm wearing LE Enchantment right now and I'd say the depth is similar, but Enchantment doesn't have any orange at all and isn't as bright. At least on my cool tone, blueish lips.
I don't have the original and was on the fence about the Lunar one. I purchased velvet liason from the Valentines collection and took the Lunar palette out my cart,and that was a huge struggle.
I agree - that red looks great on you!!! Very cool blue-based reds look best on me; I am neutral but lean cool. Finding your perfect red is essential - I really rely on a red lip when I don't do an over-the-top eye look (rare, but it does happen periodically 😅). If I have a super bright red lip, I can get away with just foundation, blush, and mascara - that's my 10-minute running late look. Congrats on the publication! (also, I was waiting/hoping at 17.27 for you to say, "You are actually getting f*cked under" lol - I have had a bit to drink tonight)
Ok. The bronze in the quad is just a tad too cool tone for me so I would probably prefer the new version. But I’m not getting it. I use that quad for travel but it’s still in great shape so no need to buy a backup.
Congratulations!!!👏 Is this your first publication? Zoeva. Inglot. Ahhhh. Memories Hope you feel better 100% soon. 😬 Although the bit of raspiness is pretty cool 😎
Thank you! Haha no. It’s my third first author paper 🥰. And I have been co-author on others. Yes sweet sweet memories! Thank you! Haha I had to stop filming a few times to clear that out.
Congratulations on the publication! ❤❤🎉

Haha you remind me of one of my besties who always describes shopping online as “it’s all a blur” 🤣
I agree that the new one looks more well put together! In your eyeshadow look the colours just melded together 🤩
Yes I think so too. It also looked brighter on my lids which helps elongate my eye shape. Really smoky shadows sadly do the opposite.

They looked different in the pan because of the backup colour (of the palette) probably.
Yeps totally didn’t think of that but that’s probably the reason.
I wish mine was in the red lacquer packaging 😭
The black one is actually more luxurious! I hope that helps 🥹.
Ok. The bronze in the quad is just a tad too cool tone for me so I would probably prefer the new version. But I’m not getting it. I use that quad for travel but it’s still in great shape so no need to buy a backup.
